General Description

I am selling my Fezz Audio Equinox Prestige DAC, a high-end tube DAC developed in collaboration with Lukasz Fikus (Lampizator).

Purchased in October 2025 (ex-display unit from authorized dealer). Works perfectly, tubes in excellent condition (TAD selected 2411). Used with the utmost care in a carefully curated audiophile system and in a non-smoking environment. Total usage is approximately 20 hours, including minimal use as a shop display unit and careful personal use in my home system. Single owner since purchase.

It offers exceptional musicality, blending digital precision with the organic texture and airiness typical of tube output stages.
Unlike the standard version (1 single tube, RCA outputs only), the Prestige version is a significant upgrade:
• Dual 12AU7 (ECC82) tubes: For a wider soundstage and better channel separation.
• Balanced XLR outputs: In addition to RCA, providing a "Dead Quiet" noise floor and increased dynamics.
• Performance: A more stable holographic image, a silent background, and an increased sense of precision while maintaining the fluidity and body typical of a tube stage.

Review of Steve Huff (September 2025) on the standard Equinox version:
‘This Fezz DAC really impressed me. The Fezz sound is detailed and light, very airy, very holographic, the mid-range has that realism to it. It’s not super throaty or chesty but it’s very real and detailed; you can hear the cracks and even the age in someone’s voice. This is one of the most three dimensional holographic DACs that I’ve heard. Everything becomes immediately more present, more airy, more detailed, more transparent with a beautiful timbre and tone. Never sounds hard, no fatigue, and it has tight controlled bass. This is one of the most impressive DACs that I’ve heard in a long long time and it’s something that I would expect to be more in the $5,000 – $8,000 range’
